It lg the farmer boy who !g do ing the marrying. The statement a based on marriage licenses-issued during September ty the .county clerk's office. i Or the 58 licenses Issued last tinonth, .14 were applied for by pen who gave thefr occupation as hat of farming. That is, one out f every foar men who wanted to marry, was a farmer. , J Five of themen applicants jcaira their oecupat on an that of clerk, wh'le four out of the 58. wcre maclumics. Four mon Rave their occupation that of salesmen. Three laborers fwere given marriage licenses, and also three students, i Only two plumbers came to the marriage license counter, and only jtwo bookkeepers were, given li cense to marry.' ) Of the following , occupations, ;there was only one each who ap plied for marriaga license: teach er, surveyor, fruit grower, printer, 'garage bus'ness, stockman, mill Jtnan, gas engineerassistant cash jier, gTocer, stase driver, auto me chanic, logger, ' traffic officer. draftsman, metaf polisher, timber worker, general merchandise, and dentist. It isn't the girl who is working that Is doing the marrying. It is the g'.Tl who Is staying at home.
